Senior Software Engineer (SRE), Cloud Compute

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Software Engineer (SRE), Cloud Compute based in Brazil.

This is a senior infrastructure engineering opportunity focused on building and operating critical cloud compute capabilities at scale.

You will join a Core Platform environment responsible for reliability, scalability, performance, and self-service infrastructure.

A major focus will be the modernization and migration of workloads from legacy platforms to Kubernetes and EKS.

You will work across compute, networking, IAM, load balancing, GitOps, and infrastructure as code.

The role combines hands-on engineering with production operations, incident response, and cross-team technical leadership.

You will partner closely with engineering teams that depend on shared infrastructure for highly available production systems.

It is an ideal environment for an experienced engineer who enjoys complex systems, modernization, and solving reliability challenges.

Accountabilities

• Lead and execute the migration of production workloads from legacy compute environments to EKS, including networking, IAM configuration, and functional parity.
• Design, maintain, and evolve shared compute and networking components, including private connectivity, load balancers, and internal platform APIs.
• Operate critical production infrastructure, maintaining high availability, resilience, scalability, and performance while participating in on-call rotations.
• Evolve GitOps and infrastructure-as-code practices, including the maintenance and improvement of deployment and rollout tooling.
• Investigate and resolve complex infrastructure and production issues while contributing to long-term reliability improvements.
• Serve as a technical point of contact for internal engineering teams that depend on shared compute infrastructure.
• Collaborate across platform and product engineering teams to negotiate technical priorities, improve self-service capabilities, and reduce infrastructure complexity and technical debt.

Requirements

• Proven experience as a backend, platform, infrastructure, or Site Reliability Engineer, preferably at mid-to-senior level.
• Strong hands-on experience operating and evolving Kubernetes infrastructure, particularly Amazon EKS, in production environments.
• Practical experience with AWS services such as VPC, IAM, load balancers, Auto Scaling, and Elastic Beanstalk.
• Solid understanding of distributed systems and networking concepts, including TCP/IP, DNS, proxies, and inter-service communication.
• Experience working with production systems and reliability practices, including availability, resilience, incident response, and on-call operations.
• Experience migrating workloads between compute platforms or modernizing legacy infrastructure is highly valuable.
• Familiarity with GitOps and Infrastructure as Code, particularly ArgoCD, Pulumi, or equivalent technologies.
• Ability to work comfortably with systems undergoing modernization while balancing technical debt, reliability, and delivery needs.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to explain technical decisions and align priorities with product and engineering teams.
• Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools during technical work while maintaining full ownership and understanding of the code and solutions produced.

Benefits

• Annual profit-sharing program and eligibility for equity.
• National health, dental, and life insurance coverage.
• Annual professional development budget focused on technology.
• Language development incentives for English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
• Flexible meal allowance.
• Extended parental leave.
• Child-care assistance.
• Flexible working hours and a remote-first culture.
• Financial assistance for setting up a home office.
